Occupational Safety and
Health Administration
This OSHA publication is not a standard or regulation, and it creates no new legal obligations. The
publication is advisory in nature, informational in content, and is intended to assist employers in
providing a safe and healthful workplace. The Occupational Safety and Health Act requires employers
to comply with hazard-specific safety and health standards. In addition, pursuant to Section 5(a)(1),
the General Duty Clause of the Act, employers must provide their employees with a workplace free
from recognized hazards likely to cause death or serious physical harm. Employers can be cited for
violating the General Duty Clause if there is a recognized hazard and they do not take reasonable
steps to prevent or abate the hazard. However, failure to implement these recommendations is not,
in itself, a violation of the General Duty Clause. Citations can only be based on standards, regulations, and the General Duty Clause.
